Australia has relatively few travel and visa restrictions for delegates and organisers wishing to enter the country. Passport holders from most countries can apply for Australian visas online.

All visitors to Australia require a valid passport and visa to enter the country. Delegates attending the 2024 ISMS Marketing Science Conference will be required to apply for a business visitor visa. There are three visas that delegates can apply for online to visit Australia for tourism or business visitor activities, as outlined below. Use this to find the right visa for you.Ìý
